Being a teenager in the 80s in a small town in West Virginia, 2 knives were mandatory carry for the outdoorsman. A Buck 110 and a Case trapper. One place in town sold knives and they were pretty expensive for my 13 year old budget,22 dollars for the Buck and 10 dollars for the Case.was the king of my high-school class,when we showed our knives at lunch,love my buck's Thanks for the memories
just picked me up the 110 the other day, 27yrs of wanting a buck110 and finally have it!!!
So the model you bought was around the year they brought back the genuine ebony handles.
You won’t be disappointed!!
My Buck 110 and 119 go with Me everywhere! EDC Forever ❤️🇺🇸
I bought my Buck 110 13 years ago when I was 18 it's first knife I legally bought when I show it off to my older brother and our friend Jim, Jim got all nostalgic about the knife and told me that when he was a teenager in the 70s the buck 110 and the Schrade clone of the 110 were the two knives to own he said it didn't matter if you carried any other knife on you you had to have one of those to be one of the cool kids growing up where we did in Indiana he told me that he knew lots of people who hunted but nine times out of 10 they would carry a fixed blade to skin the animals they hunted and they would use their 110 as a work knife and from talking to my uncle's and other people I've learned that the buck 110 was the definitive work knife up until the late 1990s my buck 110 has survived a house fire survived being beat on to split wood and still maintains and Edge longer than any other knife I own the buck 110 in my opinion is one of the best knives in the world and I would choose it over any $500 knife with the Specialty Steel and scale materials they make now
You got me wanting to go get mine out of the drawer and use it now! Lol Thanks for sharing.
Awsome American classic knives. Got my first buck 110 when I was 10. Im 53 now and still collect knives. The 110 was the cause of my first trip to ER to get stiches LOL. I was showing a kid my knife in grade school. When he handed it back to me blade first. When I grabbed it he jerked it out of my hand cutting 3 fingers literally to the bone. Thanks for review of the truly American classic knife. God bless 🇺🇸
It's truly a classic knife. Everybody should have one if you are a collector
I have a Schrade LB-7 I'm going to do a video on eventualy. (Another nice knife!)
Videos like this are among your best Thanks BtW my son in law bought me a 110 when they visited over Easter What a great gift Lovely knife but it’s a boat anchor on the belt!
I've just begun a vintage 110 investigation. The knife does have it's charms, and I have good memories of these in '70s California, they were common. I'm partial to the squared edges of that era and I still need a 3-pin. You've got some beauties there, your Dad's is the real deal, and I don't doubt your brother-in-law's conviction.
Good stuff, thanks !
Nice stories yea those 110s will live forever 👍😀✌🏻
THOSE WEAR THE GOOD DAYS IN AMERICA. RESPECT FROM USMC!!!!!!!..........
I loved your video. I liked your story of finding your Buck in the road. I know I would have been so excited as a kid.. I just got my first 110 from the Buck factory two days ago, I can't stop looking at it. It is a beautiful piece of art, Best wishes to you
Enjoy your knife, you got a good one!
Fabulous review on the Buck 110!
Love those old ones!!!
I found a knife riding my bike the same way it was a Case Canoe I took it to my dad it wasn’t in great shape so he took it to ace hardware and the guy warranted it and gave him a new one but that was back in the day they damn sure won’t do that anymore they’ll tell you to send it in.
A big knife can do anything a small knife can do. A small knife can do anything a small knife can do too.
I still have my 1974 2 dot no nail nick 112 ranger. great knife :)
I love your Buck 110 colection, i own a few myself.
Love your assistant too, mine ,,helps" me all the time too when i am sitting by the table.
Now my uncle swears by either using the Case Sodbuster Jr. or the Trapper for skinning a dear.
Thanks for sharing, its nice that you have your Fathers knives and I have hankered for one of these for a long time. I am picking the 110 and 112 for a bargain price next week, Definitely a design icon. All the best from Scotland. Garry
I have a 112 and 110 I bought whilst in the Army . 75-81
I etched the blades and carved pictures in the brass . I also filed down the handles to fit my hands. It lightened them up quite a bit .
Now I attached the new clip from a buck 110 lightweight on the 110 . Not bad for pocket carry.
Nice video. I have a couple of 110s in my collection (an old one and a newer one) , but for the past 35 + years, my primary hunting knife has been a 112 that I bought in Bangor, Maine in 1979. I prefer the 112's lighter weight while retaining all the positive aspects of the 110 in a more compact rendering.
I've cleaned a lot of deer with the 112 that my late father in law gave me for Christmas in 1988. within a month of getting it, the tip broke off while digging a bullet out of a rotten log. instead of replacing the blade, I rounded the tip, and made an awesome skinner of it. LOL 31 deer seasons later, I'm running short of blade, I just bought a new one, and will retire it,
@@joeabaker57 look at buck knife "spa treatment". They'll clean it up for you and even put a blade on it for something like 6 dollars
Just scored a three dot 1980-81 110 and it puts all my other 110's to shame! It feels heavier and stronger because of the squared bolsters and it's built like a tank. It's also the better 440C steel (last year for that) which I honed to a razor. The three dot is what the Buck 110 should look like. It is the masculine version of the 110. The rounded bolsters make the knife look feminine in my opinion. This three dot 110 will be my new edc/hunting/camping blade and will replace all those damn "super duper" steel knives that I have purchased over the years. They all sit in a box collecting dust now.
you can almost feel the history and life if them knives.iv never had or held one but they just say america in steel to me.thanks for sharing especially your fathers knife.atb paddy
Thank you paddys potato peelers ! Years ago I used to see these on quite a few peoples belts, (that black sheath was a dead giveaway!) . In this day and age the only time I see any (if at all) is around hunting season in the fall. Have a wonderful day paddy!
Thanks for sharing that with us, keep it up.
I use mine as a regular every day carry.
I would have called myself a collector of traditional knives till I saw some of the people on YT, now I would only call myself a mild enthusiast! There will be a Buck 110 in my collection, just not yet!
Before they starting using the current dating system the dots also indicated the the approximate year range of manufacturing ( 1,2 & 3 dots).
Buck's a classic. I've got a 110, 503 & 373 - hope to get a customized 112 at some point (no pun intended). Thanks for the video!
I need a 112 myself!
Very informative
Awesome video thanks for sharing. I lost a Buck knife back in 1980-1982 Not sure which year. I had lost it out of my sheath while getting out of the car at a bar in New Jersey. When I was leaving the bar I saw a car pull up beside my car the woman jumped out and picked up something beside my car I realized what it was as she jumped back in her car. I holler but she kept going. I'm not even sure where it was after all these years. I live in Maryland not far from NJ. If anyone sees this and knows who got my knife. I'd like to have it back. It was a gift I'd love to have it back. I'd pay a reward for it. Thanks.
Sorry to hear that. Hope it turns up.
Your voice makes it feel like this is a knife review by Kevin Spacey. I love it. Beautiful knives!
Great review of the Buck 110! You have a nice collection!
I have used my Buck to field dress deer but I use several knives for skinning and butchering.
Ohhhhhh... I like that older 1 with the smaller pins And less of them
Ur ritie. The liner and bolsters are one piece. I bought mine in 1969. In a hard ware store.i was 13 . try that now.ha.ha. the upside down tang whas early 60s .thought ud like to know. Great vidio.
I have the 25th anniversary model with nickel silver bolsters and I love it. Great video buddy. 👍🙂
hi I would say those markings on the bolster are from where he struck it with sort of a nail set type tool too tighten up the side to side play , my knife has similar marks from me doing the same
Nice Sir
That stamp is two Ks.
I lost one, hope whoever found it enjoys it.
It was diamond wood, my new one (2020) is ebony.
Glad they brought the ebony back. Is yours the finger grooved model?
@@matttherrien9608 No, just standard. I'm not keen on finger grooves.
I found the old one in my garage while moving things round.
Had never heard the story about that black handle 110. Maybe the K was a steel stamp, and they missed the second hammer hit? Great video, Dad.
, I'm still looking for the buck with 3 pins.....great video !
Great video. I love my buck 110 knives. I carry one frequently. Your style of reviewing is very relaxing. I like it. .
Thank you for the kind words! Your right, their still great knives to carry. Thanks again.
Gotta love the buck 110 :) good vid:) very informative:)
Thank you! There were some details I missed in the video, but a few of the comments got the details straightened out.
I just found a nice 110 from 1980-85 in mint condition at Kittery Trading Post in Kittery ME. It’s my favorite knife.
It belongs to a bike back then the bikers wor the case up side down for fast release of the knife I am a old biker I know have a nice day.
Say Heah, Over the years I even had the Buck 110 in the 440c. Today, Infact most recently I got a Buck 112, Its a little smaller than the 110 but its a 90 model so its made in the 425 Mod.,,.
I've never had the 112, just a different knife that's similar. I have to look up when they used 440c, maybe one of these has it.
Before 1990 I think, they only used the 425 Mod. a couple of years and it is about 20% better edge retention than the 420HC. though.,,.
k thanks
Y W..,,.
Send it to Buck knives and they will overhaul it for you for only $6.95!
I like when his “assistant” was involved. Not a hint of gettin mad. Cool cat no pun
Nice video, hope all is well with you
Also seems like all three knives could use some TLC.
Good timeless video, much like the Buck 110. Thanks
This knives made in California
In Idaho knives make since 2005
Thank you for catching that. I made the change in the video description.
Aside from the design, I can’t agree that the classic 110 has withstood the test of time. I bought one with silver bolsters, black micarta, and an s35vn blade, and I hardly carry it. It’s super heavy, the balance is way off, and it lacks the option of an official horizontal sheath. That last bit relegates it to shirt-tuckers who are okay with fanny packs and belt-mounted smartphones. It’s a beautiful thing, though. I pull it out occasionally to fondle and look at.
Mui buena rebius una pregunta que quiere decir dólar 110 que se escucha en muchas revisiones muchas gracias y un saludo yo tengo una buk 110 estoy mui orgulloso de ella
de nada
The pivot is NOT a pin. You have a 2 pin and (2) 3 pin knives. The pivot is for the spring/lock.
I understand that. But for the general public it is easier to have them count all the pins on the side to get the same results.
Does anyone know Y its a “110”?? Is the blade or bolsters measuring lil over an inch? Plz help me im very curious Y.
Hi kitty cat lmao
Has any of them developed any blade play?
FlorinU Yes, they have some but it is inherent in it's design and is acceptable to a point.
Sorry, Its a long video.
Sorry about your bro
How do you know which steel the blade is made out of
You have to know what year it was made, then find what steel they were using that year.
Hey my name is Jonathan I just purchased the book 110 Folden Hunter three days ago and I really love it but I wanted to know if there is a store or any place you would know of where I could get my butt going to fold and Hunter converted into an automatic one? If someone knows the answer please let me know thank you.
The Buck website now lists a factory automatic 110 knife so I doubt you can find o e except an older conversion on Ebay.
Only a wimp complains a about the weight.a real man does not conplain.
I love the weight too. It feels like I'm holding my junk. lol
@@matttherrien9608 I just bought my first buck 110 last week and I’ll say after carrying a lot of different taticool knives I’ve never held a knife that just felt so right in the hand every thing from the handle length shape and weight is just perfect
i got the automatic
I’ve carried it every day for half a decade, the only thing that’s ever been wrong with it is about 2 years ago the tip broke off (due to my own self) and I used a table grinder and put a new tip on it instead of taking advantage of the forever warranty. It’s a fantastic knife, stays sharp long, and has lasted longer than anything else I had at the time I bought it lol. Even my old wallet gave out, but the Buck 110 stays by my side.
This knives made in California
In Idaho knives make since 2005
Thanks for the info! I just now found your comment, sorry it took so long for the thank you.
I have one my dad bought me used back in '89 with a broken tip. I think the blade was BUCK'S 425M steel because I could never get it sharp but I found it in a box when I moved out of my parents house and sent it in to BUCK in 2008 and they put a new blade in it for me, now it sharpens and cuts like a dream.
Very nice video! Thanks for sharing! We used to be able to carry knives out in public!
Paid $13.00 in 1970 when I was in the Navy. Sam Adler
